• Not leave doors or windows open

• Sheds and garages are often vulnerable as they are not that secure and contain tools which the someone can use to assist them to gain entry to a home

• Many burglars return to homes that they’ve previously burgled because the homeowner failed to upgrade security following the first burglary or return to an area to try to burgle a nearby home that they spotted while committing a previous break in
